Optimism over Indias economy is fading .

The pace of structural reforms has been slow due to political gridlock and high profile political scandals in the recent years. To realize Indias growth potential, major structural reforms aimed at improving the investment climate are necessary. Following are the points needs to consider in order reviving Indian Economy.
INVESTMENT IN INFRA: By pumping up both foreign and domestic investment -- government

and private -- in infrastructure projects Increases the time-to-market cycle for these projects. By rationalize investing in road, rail, cold storage and logistics, aviation, ports and distribution it results in increased connectivity within India and it ultimately will promote trade and entrepreneurship
HIGH-END MANUFACTURING: Implement the integrated manufacturing policy. India needs

more factories to generate employment. Revive the concept of SEZs and promote them with incentives. Such a focus will increase employment, while generating consumer demand
ENTREPRENEURSHIP INCUBATION CELL: Free up the entrepreneurial spirit of Indians by

encouraging and incentivizing them to start their factories and industries. Give special focus to entrepreneurs who bring in innovative high-end technology .Entrepreneurship will not only generate jobs, but will create drivers of growth.
ENERGY REFORMS: The country is energy and electricity deficient. There should a nation-

wide policy on achieving energy security. With adequate energy and electricity, factories, industries and services-based economy cannot take off. Access to affordable energy is critical for industries as well as for mechanization of agriculture.
INTERLINK MAJOR RIVERS: Large parts of country are either water-deficient or water-

surplus. Interlinking major rivers will provision for adequate drinking water as well as for industrial purposes. Such an interlinking will also provide an inland waterway system. Access to adequate water and an inland waterway system are critical to jump-start the economy
CREATE A HI-SPEED RAIL NETWORK: For an economy to prosper people need to move

quickly from one city to another. A high-speed rail network will not only integrate Indian cities,

but will also promote the overall economy. An affordable high speed rail network will pump up the growth in several core sectors like construction, manufacturing and services.

BOOST HIGHER EDUCATION: Focus on higher education is critical if India needs to keep up

its supply of good quality graduates, post-graduates and doctorates in order to provide for a rapidly growing economy. Indian youth need to be exposed to global standards and private sector should be allowed to tie-up with established foreign universities to provision high quality education.
E-COMMERCE AND M-GOVERNANCE: Digitized all government records and drastically

reduce all physical contact for government services. This will bring in greater transparency, reduce corruption and will rationalize the size of the bureaucracy. Digital governance will reduce delays and corruption in decision-making.
IMPROVE THE GOVERNANCE: This is probably the hardest and most important task.

Whoever leads the government, India needs maximum governance and minimum government. There is no point having the worlds largest democracy unless it leads to effective government.
